dc_MOTOR_SPEED_CONTROL

Published:2009/7/9 23:18:00 Author:May

dc_MOTOR_SPEED_CONTROL
The system shown consists of the HA-2542, a small 12-Vdc motor, and a position encoder. During operation, the encoder causes a series of constant-width pulses to charge C1. The integrated pulses develop a reference voltage, which is proportional to motor speed and is applied to the inverting input of HA-2542. The noninverting input is held at a constant voltage, which represents the desired motor speed. A difference between these two inputs will send a corrected drive signal to the motor, which completes the speed control system loop.   (View)

CHILD_PROOF_RESET_SWITCH

Published:2009/7/9 23:14:00 Author:May

CHILD_PROOF_RESET_SWITCH
The reset switch on a computer is very important. If an operating instruction threatens to wreck the internal management of a computer, the reset button is often the only way of avoiding a possible disaster. On the other hand, it also could cause a disaster. It is particularly important that children or pets cannot inadvertently operate the control. The circuit proposed here should put an end to your worries in this respect. Instead of one reset switch, it is necessary to press four switches simultaneously. The chances of this happening via accident, child, or pet are negligible. The four switches are placed in positions that make it impossible to operate them all with one hand.Instead, two of them can be operated with the fingers of one hand and the other two with the fingers on the other hand. As shown, the four switches are connected in series and are intended to replace the exist-ing switch.   (View)

LIGHT_ACTIVATED_MOTOR_DRIVE_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/20 2:38:00 Author:Jessie

LIGHT_ACTIVATED_MOTOR_DRIVE_CIRCUIT
The circuit is a basic light-activated on/off switch for the motor. A CMOS op amp (IC1) is used as a voltage comparator. The comparator monitors the levels of two input voltages and switches its out-put on or off, depending on which input voltage is greater. The input on pin 2 is set to a reference voltage of about half the supply voltage by R3 and R4. The input on pin 3 is connected to a voltage divider made up of a cadmium sulfide photocell (R1) and potentiometer R2. The resistance of a photocell changes depending upon the amount of light shining on it, so the intensity of light is indicated by the voltage on pin 3 of IC1. The light level at which the circuit turns on is adjusted by R2. When the voltage on pin 3 of IC1 is greater than that on pin 2, the output (pin 6) turns on. The output of IC1 drives Q1 directly. That transistor acts like a current amplifier for the op amp. The transistor switches the motor on and off.   (View)

COMPRESSOR_PROTECTOR

Published:2009/7/9 23:13:00 Author:May

COMPRESSOR_PROTECTOR
This circuit monitors the power-line (ac) voltage.When a power failure occurs,on restoration of power,the circuit adds a five-minute delay before energizing K1,which protects the compressor against limited low voltage. U1 is a 16-stage counter with an integral oscillator that is set to divide by 8192. R7, R8, and C4 set the oscillator frequency to about 25 Hz, which produces a total count interval of 300 seconds (5Mnutes). After this time, pin 8 U1 goes high, which forward biases Q1,triggers SCR1,and activates K1. Up to 30 A can be switched.   (View)

PM_DC_MOTOR_SPEED_CONTROL_

Published:2009/7/20 2:37:00 Author:Jessie

PM_DC_MOTOR_SPEED_CONTROL_
Speed control of permanent-magnet (PM) dc motors with the aid of optical or dc tachometers is generally inconvenient and difficult, particularly on motors with integral gearboxes. The high-speed shaft of the motor that drives the gearbox isn't always accessible and the speed of the geared-down shaft often is too low for tachometers. Described here is a single-supply regulating speed-control circuit that doesn't require a tachometer. It keeps the motor torque high under load by using positive feedback to compensate for the drop caused by armature resistance. In unregulated variable-speed PM dc motor systems, the drop in speed under load is particularly pronounced at low motor-supply voltages. The positive feedback generates a negative resistance that compensates for the nonlinear effects caused by armature resistance. It thereby ensures that the speed-control input voltage (Vi) linearly controls the speed of the motor. Armature resistance compensation is achieved if: RS= RA/[gain(R3) / (R3 + R4)] - 1 The divider action of R3 and R4 together with the gain reduces the value required for Rs to minimize the power dissipation. C1 and R4 dampen the positive-feedback signal's response time, but they also form a low-pass filter and attenuate the motor current noise fed to the A2 input. The maximum output voltage swing from A2 is approximately VCC-2 V, and there is a 1.2-V Vbe loss by T1. This implies that the supply voltage (Vcc) should be about 5 V above the maximum desired motor voltage in order to allow for extra output drive to the motor under heavy load conditions. A reason-able choice for Rs is approximately RA/10, and the gain of A2 should be trimmed with RV2 to ensure that the motor's speed does not drop when loaded.   (View)

This circuit produces an output pulse when SW1 (pushbutton) is depressed. It also becomes a hysteresis gate oscillator. D1 and R2 add asymmetry. The DBRT (delay before repeat time) is caused by the oscillator start-up conditions: C1 has to change from zero to the upper gate threshold rather than to the lower threshold.

TONE_DECODER

Published:2009/7/20 1:57:00 Author:Jessie

TONE_DECODER
Replaces resonant reeds commonly used in multichannel radio-con-trolled models to detect modulation frequency being transmitted. Use of IC logic has advantage that range of audio frequencies can exceed an octave, whereas reeds cannot because they respond to second harmonic. Decoder has digital high-pass characteristic that is passed through inverter to give digital low-pass characteristic. Values of RX, and CX determine critical frequency; for 900 Hz, use 150,000 ohms and 0.015 μF. To obtain n nonoverlapping bandpass characteristics, n - 1 basic elements with different critical frequencies are required; components to left of dashed line may be common to all these elements. Article covers multichannel systems in detail, along with use of time-division multiplexing.-C. Attenborough, Radio Control Tone Decoder, Wireless World, Dec.1973, p 593-594.   (View)

BLIP_AND_HOLD_RADIO_CONTROL

Published:2009/7/20 1:50:00 Author:Jessie

BLIP_AND_HOLD_RADIO_CONTROL
Coder uses two ICs to generate sequence of pulses suitable for actuators of radio control system. During standby, oscillator formed by NAND gate 1 operates at 0.5 Hz as determined by C1 and R1, and all four outputs of 7490 IC are zero. When switch AL is closed, 7490 is clocked by negative edge of oscillator waveform and Tr1 becomes forward-biased. Output of NAND gate 2 then drops to zero, stopping oscillator and holding outputs of 7490. When switch A is opened, outputs of 7490 again drop to zero. Many different blip-and-hold combinations can be obtained by suitable arrangement of switches and gates.-G. D. Southern, Sequence Generator for Radio Control, Wireless World, Jan. 1976, p 60.   (View)
